So there's a story to it? I'm going to have to search for this and read it. _________________

Unfortunately (and maybe fortunately), it's been forever erased from the chatbox. So if you can find out wherever those disappearing messages go, you'll have the story. Otherwise...you'll have to wait for Joe's abridged version to be published. _________________

Well I don't know if it relates to what you guys were talking about in the cbox, but I did find a webpage with a history of Darth Elmo. It went on to talk about Darth Darth Binks and all sorts of other abominable characters _________________

Hmm...I don't think it relates, but that may be what OMB was referring to earlier on. Funny as that history is, how Darth Elmo was born on these forums was absolutely hilarious. I'm not sure it could be explained, was kind of a 'had to be there' kind of thing, but trust me. And it's all the better now that you've provided us a visual! So thanks much, he's great. _________________
